What would happen if I flashed the USA SG771 (LTE) firmware to a Z4V phone (E6508)?

hey Folks,
I have, in my possession a real live Xperia Z4V (E6508) that is Verizon branded. Internally it is almost identical to the Z3+ phone with two exceptions that I can discover

1. CDMA Radio
2. UHD 2560x1440 Display

Seeing that the Z4 Tablet is almost identical and has a 2560 x 1600 display, what would happen if i flashed (locked bootloader so Flashmode only via flashtool) a Z4 Tablet STOCK firmware that includes LTE support?

Any chance this will work?

Since I cannot find a STOCK Z4V (E6508) ftf or any image at all I have some reservations about the attempt.
If it would work, which firmware would be appropriate? I have working ADB/Fastboot and Flashtool installed so I would D/L the actual firmware image via Xperifirm.


Opinions? Suggestions?

Thanks,

Rick
